““The Sarasota Institute of Lifelong Learning hosts 24 speakers for our Global Issues lectures during the winter months each year. Our attendees insist that Dr. Singer be invited back regularly. We collect audience surveys for all of our first time speakers. Dr Singer received one of our highest scores ever. A representative comment was the following: “Best public speaker! Clear context backed by great slides. So many other speakers drop their voices and we lose a great deal of what they say. It is not just about the subject, but how it is presented!!!””

Strategic Narrative: How to Use The Power of a Story Well Told
How do we better share new ideas and influence target audiences? How do we better understand and prepare for the future? How do we comprehend new trends and technologies? One answer may be to enlist the power of the oldest communication technology of all –story. Described in the Wall Street Journal as “the premier futurist in the national-security environment,” P.W. Singer is a best-selling author of both nonfiction and fiction, whose work at the intersection of strategic foresight, discovery, and narrative has been featured in media like The Economist and Wired. He is also the founder of Useful Fiction LLC, a company that aids organizations in “telling their story” more effectively. Having worked for groups that range from the US military and CIA to Hollywood and the most popular video game in history, he will explain the “why” of narrative and “how” best to tell a useful story.
